Sinopsis de THE IRISH TRICOLOUR

This nationally important book reveals the untold story of the Irish tricolour: its true origins, a forgotten heroine, and the emblems it replaced. For the first time, a fully referenced history corrects long-standing myths and slurs surrounding Irelands national flag. It also reinterprets iconic Irish symbols — from the harp and shamrock to the tri-spiral — placing them within the broader journey toward Irish nationhood and national identity. Along Irelands road to a republic, key figures are restored to their rightful place — from Owen Roe ONeill and Wolfe Tone to Thomas Meagher and Padraig Pearse.

The book explores crucial turning points — the rise of green as Irelands colour, the rebellions of 1642, 1798, 1848, and 1916, Catholic Emancipation, and the flags later use — and misuse. A bold, insightful retelling of Irelands story through its symbols.
